Israel releases 20 Palestinian detainees from Gaza

Most of those freed had been detained during Israeli operations in northern Gaza on October 5.

Despite the release, Israeli authorities have not disclosed the total number of Gazan detainees still held, raising concerns about enforced disappearances. Palestinian advocates and local organizations continue to urge transparency and accountability regarding the number and condition of detainees taken from Gaza during recent escalations.

The release comes amid ongoing calls from the international community for the protection of civilian rights and adherence to humanitarian standards. (ILKHA)
